YOU HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE "ODDVILLE"!

Think BLUE MAN GROUP meets THE FORTY-YEAR-OLD VIRGIN and you'd be close. But not close enough. Hysterically indescribable, "ODDVILLE" is a unique piece of brilliant modern theater jammed with ingenious props, amplified physical comedy, complex multi-media imagery and a cool nostalgic score. It's a love story with limited words but plenty of heart that connects your imagination to your funny bone with fits of laughter.

As the curtain rises on "ODDVILLE" our lonely hero, Lonely 1, is caught between existing onstage or inside a giant video screen. With one foot rooted in reality and the other in an alternate digital universe he battles the oddest of obstacles on his quest for true love.

A love story wrapped in clever wit and irresistible charm, "ODDVILLE" is an unforgettable evening of modern theater that will leave you laughing, thinking and wondering, "How on earth did he pull that off?" Audiences agree, "ODDVILLE" is truly a comedy that has no borders. Even those too cool for theater find "ODDVILLE" cool enough, indeed.
